THE ILLS OF WOMEN
And How Mrs. Plnkham Holpa
Ovoroomo Thom.
Mrs. Mary Bot.i.ixoer, 1101 Marianna
St., Chicago, Ill., to Mrs. l’inklinmi
“I have been troubled for the past
two years with falling of tho womb,
leueorvhrea, pains over my body, sick
headaches, backache, nervousness and
weakness. I tried doctors and various
remedics without relief. After taking
two bottles of your Vegetable Com
pound, the relief I obtained was truly
wonderful. I have now taken several
more bottles of your famous medicine,
and can say that 1 ain entirely cured.”
Mrs. Henry Dorr, No. 806 Findley St.,
Cincinnati, Ohio, to Mrs. I’inkliain:
“For a long time 1 suffered with
chronic inflammation of the womb,
pain in abdomen and bearing-down
feeling. Was very nervous at times, and
•o weak I was hardly able to do any
thing. Was subject to headaches, nl.so
troubled with leueorrlioen. A ftcr doc
toring for many months with different
physician*, aud gettingnorelief, I had
given up all hope of being well
a&ain when I read of tho great good
Lydia E. Pinkbam's Vegetable Com
pound was doing. 1 decided immedi
ately to givtpt a trial. The result was
Bimply past belief. After taking four
bottles of Vegetable Compound and
using three packages of Sanative Wash
I can say I feel like a new woman. 1
deem it my duty to announce the fact
to my fellow sufferers that Lydia
E. Pinkham s Vegetable remedies have
entirely cured me of all ruy pains and
suffering. I have her alone to thank
for my recovery, for which I am grate
ful. May heaven bless her for tho
good work sho is doing for our sex.’’

THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FWS
is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the California Fig Si rup
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the California Fig Syrup Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
imitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. with the medi
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. It is
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken
ing them, and it does not gripe nor
nauseate. In order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name of
the Company —

Filipinos as They Are,
The Insurgents are not brave find
will not stand exposed under Arc. The
Spanlsh-Flllplno Idea of war Is to first
build breastworks, then hug them, hold
a gun overhead, resting on the parapet
nnd fire In the atmosphere. They take
no aim, nnd arc slow and awkward In
handling their weapons.
Filipinos have no discipline. They
come and go almost at will. Their
wives and children accompany them
to the front. They wear a uniform
slmilar to the Spaniards, a blouse aud
trousers of light blue cotton cloth.
They carry a small bag of rice and
about fifteen rounds of ammunition.
All natives are barefooted, children
wear a shirt, women a loose waist ami
a yard of cotton around the hips. Men
Usually wear a shirt aud trunks. Girls
marry at twelve years. The families
at e large; women of twenty can fre- 1
quently be seen with seven or eight
children. Tito women age early, and
few except half castes can be consid
ered pretty. They do not average over
eighty-live pounds In weight, and take
great pride in their long black hair,
which they wear combed back and
coiled on the back of the head. They
are erect, nnd some have ting shoul
ders. Betel nut chewing is universal,
The juice is blood red, discolors .the
mouth and teeth, and gives them a dis
gustlng appearance. They use no bed
clothing, but sleep in their clothes on
bamboo cots. Modesty is an unknown
virtue among the natives.—Chicago

HEALTHY MATERNITY.
Two Grateful Women Tell of the Help They Have Reoeived From
Mrs. Pinkham.
The climax of life force in woman is capable motherhood.
The first requisite for a good mother is good health.
Health of body means health of the generative organs.
Read what Mrs. G. A. Noiotamakeb,
Bluffton, Ohio, says about Lydia E. Pink
ham’s Vegetable Compound, and how well
i it prepared her for maternity:
V “ Dear Mrs. Pinkham :— I must say a word
in praise of your Vegetable Compound. I
!» £> used three bottles of it when I was preg
V x 1 nant, and labor was not nearly as long
v as it was with my other babies; and
m % my baby is so healthy to what the
others were. I think every woman
a should use your Compound when preg
& ing nant, and it will misery. save I them cannot so much say enough,
in praise of it. If ever I need medicinh ’
f^wTv 1 t) A again, I shall use your Compound.”
7 The most successful tonic known to

“Dear Mrs.Pinkham:—I am ft
great believer in your Compound. I was almost despairing of ever again being
well, as I was a great sufferer, and had been for years. I suffered from womb
trouble, and had terrible blind fits. After writing to you I tried your Com
